007 Moonraker
One sheet, movie poster for the 1979 James Bond film
Moonraker, the 11th entry in the franchise and the fourth to star Roger Moore as 007. Driven by the late-70s science fiction craze following Star Wars, the film famously sent Bond into outer space.
Film Overview
Release Date: June 26, 1979 (UK) and June 29, 1979 (USA).
Director: Lewis Gilbert.
Theme Song: Performed by Shirley Bassey, making her the only artist to record three Bond themes (Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, and Moonraker).
Plot: Bond investigates the mid-air theft of a Moonraker space shuttle, leading him to billionaire Hugo Drax. He eventually joins forces with CIA agent Dr. Holly Goodhead to stop Drax's plan to commit global genocide and repopulate Earth with a "master race" from his hidden space station.
Key Cast
James Bond: Roger Moore.
Holly Goodhead: Lois Chiles.
Hugo Drax: Michael Lonsdale.
Jaws: Richard Kiel (reprising his role from The Spy Who Loved Me).
Corinne Dufour: Corinne Cléry.
Notable Trivia
The Gondola Scene: The famous "Bondola" hovercraft scene in Venice took five attempts to film successfully. Roger Moore fell into the water during the first four attempts, ruining several silk suits in the process.
Skydiving Stunt: The opening free-fall sequence required 88 jumps and five weeks of filming to produce just two minutes of footage.
Record Breaking: Moonraker was the highest-grossing Bond film ever at the time of its release, a record it held until 1995's GoldenEye.
The "Mandela Effect": Many fans misremember Jaws' girlfriend, Dolly, as having braces. In reality, she never wore them in the film.
